If you'd bothered to look into this case even slightly you'd know how much nonsense you're typing. That sort of research apparently just isn't needed before you

If you'd bothered to look into this case even slightly you'd know how much nonsense you're typing. That sort of research apparently just isn't needed before you arrogantly assume you're right though.
- dang 11y agoThis comment breaks the HN guidelines by being uncivil and unsubstantive. On HN, when someone is wrong, please don't rudely call names without giving information. Instead, politely explain how they are wrong. Then the atmosphere isn't poisoned and we all learn something.
- hahainternet 11y agoIn reality what happens is the comment is ignored, the parent poster takes the disagreement to reinforce their beliefs. Nothing is gained and the discussion becomes more polarised. It should not be my responsibility to meet any burden of proof whatsoever given the parent poster did not. I was as polite as I felt was required.
- SamReidHughes 11y agoAh, so we should be rude to people that are wrong because that's less polarizing than the alternative.
- hahainternet 11y agoYes. Loudly and angrily telling people they have not researched and have posted something intensely stupid is a lot more effective than meekly saying "You are wrong about that but I have nothing considered legal proof and so I cannot stop you making ludicrous claims unchallenged". It's already bad enough when any state authority is mentioned and there are already enough voting cliques here.

- hahainternet 11y agoThe site guidelines indicate the poster parented to what you are complaining about committed exactly the same offences. A negative, empty post that adds nothing substantial yet accuses a wide range of authorities of being beyond stupid and possibly complicit in murder. How do you propose I counter this without posting something that can be considered rude?
- dang 11y ago> How do you propose I counter this without posting something that can be considered rude? Politely provide relevant information. This will refute the wrong statement far more persuasively than saying angry things with no information.
